<strong>Synopsis</strong>

|
<p><strong>shift</strong> [ <em>n</em> ]</p>
|

|
|
||
|
<p><strong>Description</strong></p>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<p>You can use <strong>shift</strong> to shift the positional
|
||
|
parameters to the left by <em>n.</em> Positional parameter 1 is
|
||
|
assigned the value of positional parameter (1+<em>n</em>),
|
||
|
positional parameter 2 is assigned the value of positional
|
||
|
parameter (2+<em>n</em>), and so forth. The special parameter
|
||
|
<strong>#</strong> is updated with the new number of positional
|
||
|
parameters.</p>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<p><strong>Options</strong></p>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<p>None.</p>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<p><strong>Operands</strong></p>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<p>The value of <em>n</em> must be an unsigned integer less than or
|
||
|
equal to the special parameter <strong>#</strong>. If <em>n</em> is
|
||
|
not specified, the default value is 1. If <em>n</em> is 0, there
|
||
|
are no changes to the positional parameters.</p>
